At the age of 19, Matt was diagnosed with Crohnâ??s Disease, a chronic intestinal disorder. In 2007, after years of trying a variety of traditional therapies to treat the symptoms of Crohnâ??s, Matt received a doctorâ??s recommendation for medical marijuana and was added to the Colorado Medical Marijuana Registry. As interest grew in a variety of caregiver business models throughout early 2009, Matt was approached by several business acquaintances to help them better understand the regulations surrounding dispensaries and medical marijuana grow operations. From this starting point, Matt founded Colorado CannaBusiness Consultants where he has since consulted with over 100 Colorado caregiver organizations on how to understand the present laws and regulations as well as how to prepare their business for better regulations in the future.
Matt graduated magna cum laude from Boston Universityâ??s School of Management with a B.S. in Management, concentration in Finance.

And we are by NO means big money. LOL. I'm jealous of the guys with these bloated ad budgets and flat screens on the wall. Looks like we'll just have to keep doing it with knowledge and good meds.
